The Washington Learning Health System Embedded Scientist Training and Research (LHS E-STAR) Center provides an exciting opportunity for early career scientists to receive training and mentorship to build their skills and experience in transforming primary care. The Center is a collaboration among leading research organizations with expertise in LHS training and diverse primary care organizations (PCOs) from across the state.
